Spicy Peach-Glazed Pork Chops

Riesling and pork are a match made in heaven. Try this dish with Clean Slate – a German riesling with a clean ripe peach flavor of its own ($11.99 at Cool Springs Wine & Spirits).

Ingredients
1 cup peach preserves
1 1/2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
1/2 tsp chile paste
4 boneless pork chops
1 tsp ground ginger
1 pinch ground cinnamon
Salt and Pepper to taste
2 tbsp vegetable oil
1/2 cup white wine

Directions
1. In a small bowl, mix together the peach preserves, Worcestershire sauce, and chile paste. Rinse pork chops, and pat dry. Sprinkle the chops with ginger, cinnamon, salt, and pepper.

2. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chops for about 2 minutes on each side. Remove from the pan, and set aside.

3. Pour white wine into the pan, and stir to scrape the bottom of the pan. Stir in the peach preserves mixture. Return the chops to the pan, and flip to coat with the sauce. Reduce heat to medium low, and cook the pork chops for about 8 minutes on each side, or until done.
